Preinstallation Procedures
Selecting a Site
Make sure the installation area you select has the following features:
■ Sturdy, level installation site that includes dedicated and properly
grounded (earthed) circuits, air conditioning, and static electricity
protection
■ Clearance of 7.6 cm (3 in) at front and back of the server for proper
ventilation
■ Separate electrical circuit for the server
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary
interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device
protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage
spikes, and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.
Unpacking the Server
Unpack the server, keyboard, and cables according to the instructions and
illustrations printed on the shipping carton(s).
